Erected in the 14th century, the Penchée tower takes its name from its almost 1.50 m inclination, visible to the naked eye. Built in the 14th century, it was originally used as a defensive wall for the town. In the 18th century, it lost this function and became a women's dungeon. In the 19th century, it was used as a forge and apartments for gunsmiths. Its subsidence is due to the weight of its weight on the sandy soil, although some see it as divine punishment inflicted on the city of Copernicus, the astronomer with heretical theories.
